These are some updates from both Ryan and Arnd for the hvc_console
driver:
The main point is to enable the inclusion of a console driver
for rtas, which is currrently needed for the cell platform.
Also shuffle around some data-type declarations and moves some
functions out of include/asm-ppc64/hvconsole.h and into a new
drivers/char/hvc_console.h file.

Also deletes files in arch/ppc64 that are no longer used now that
we don't compile with ARCH=ppc64 any more.

Remove all the vio device driver code from hvc_console.c
This will allow us to separate hvsi, hvc, and allow hvc_console to be used
without the ppc64 vio layer.

Separate the console setup routines of the hvc_console and the vio layer.
Remove the call to find_init_vty from hvc_console.c.
Fail the setup routine if the console doesn't exist, but register the console
again when the specified channel is instantiated. This scheme maintains the
print buffer semantics while eliminating callout and call back for the console
code.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
